Immediately after the intro, the albums vibe changes attire to go straight to the trap. It’s a rough brief history lesson of his life, that puts context on his actual newly released book ” The Autobiography of Gucci Mane”which was released September 19. Metro and Guwop have continued their ceaseless work ethics, and we’ll have much more raw material to analyze at 10:17 a.m. this Friday.The intro to the album comes in and immediately brings you to the beginning of the makings of the entertainer Gucci Mane. The Return of East Atlanta Santa's "Both" finds him in a similar exercise. Instead, Gucci uses the space between bass slaps to deliver his message of stunting. The Woptober standout has all the features of a beat that would force most rappers to adopt a rapid flow. “Bling Blaww Burr” is a good example of this. On top of a Bangladesh beat, Gucci is in your face, whereas Metro creates an atmosphere for him to present a lackadaisical boast. It’s a different type of confidence, though. Like Bangladesh, Metro’s production has an effect similar effect on Guwop-it gives him a jolt of confidence. 2013 was the year, as Metro contributed beats to four different Gucci Mane projects in the year's first half before the two collaborated on a full-length mixtape of their own ( World War 3: Molly) a few month's later. Once Metro Boomin came on the scene in 2010, it was only a matter of how many mixtapes Gucci was going to release before the two worked together. Gucci Mane is known for seeking out hot Atlanta-based talent. The Return of East Atlanta Santa (“Bales”) only proves that Guwop and Bangladesh are proudly continuing their tradition of unabashed flexing. The title of their Brick Squad Boyz collaboration-“Man of the Year”-should be enough to tell you what point he’s making. Radric Davis, details living a wealthy lifestyle with a street mentality. “Lemonade” is a list of his expensive possessions of a certain pigment. While boasting is a common theme in Gucci’s music, Bangladesh soundtracks some of his most braggadocios moments. Where Guwop is concerned, he doctored the instrumental for “Lemonade,” one of Gucci’s most popular singles-aka your favorite Gucci song if you don’t really listen to Gucci.īangladesh’s staple bass reverb is present in both songs, which often gives artists the urge to flex.
It’s one of those songs that signaled a new era of 808 innovations. Try to find someone in his or her twenties who can’t rap the first verse of “A Milli” and you’ll know who was homeschooled. The title “Cuttin off Fingaz” speaks for itself.īangladesh gained popularity in the early 2000s for his work with Ludacris and he went on to produce anthems that will make any millennial nostalgic. Gucci both channels this sound and engages with his dark side. “Trap Money” and “Cuttin of Fingaz” feature piano sequences that give John Carpenter a worthy competitor. Hard to Kill proved to those in doubt that Zaytoven can produce lively bass drums, but by the time we get to Murder Was the Case, you see the elements that brought Zaytoven fame become more distinctive. There were standouts like “Lawnmower Man,” which includes ominous strings, but most of their tracks featured otherworldly keys similar to “Icy.” You continue to see Zaytiggy evolve over time through Gucci’s discography.
His distinctive keys and strings don’t define his early collaborations with Gucci, though. “ I Shoulda Left You” from Merry Christmas Lil Mama. Oftentimes he’ll produce the standout track on a project, i.e. It’s stunning how Zay has evolved his sound in the last decade while keeping his name in our minds.
I grew up in the South during the 2000s so, because of “Icy” alone, Zaytoven will forever be in my heart. Of course, Zaytoven had to be on this list.
